      SQL Server 2005 Express is out now, it's a better choice than MSDE if you can make the choice. It has much better capabilities as well.


      Formula 1 - Short for "F1 Racing" - named after the standard "help" key in Windows, it's a sport where participants desperately search through software help files trying to find actual documentation. It's tedious and somewhat cruel, most matches ending in a draw as no participant is able to find anything helpful. - Shog9 Ed

        Will this be ok with ASP.net 2003? Also, which would be better MSDE or SQL server Management Studio Express since the express has EM?

          Should be since it can act as a "standard" SQL Server, however you'll probably only leverage the new features using .NET 2

          All I know is that I tried installing MSDE once and gave up, installer experience was dreadful, tools were almost non-existant etc etc. SQL Server 2005 & SSME are great tools. They're only missing a few features from the full blown edition, apart from maybe some tools such as in-depth performance analysis and all the "boring" stuff that admins need concern themselves with I think that the only major difference between Express & Non-Express is the database size limitations. Express can only handle up to 3GB (I think). I've been doing a big project for a local company and I started the database development on my laptop acting as the server since they hadn't received their copy of SQL yet, when it arrived and was installed the admin simply hooked my database files in and all I had to do was change the authentication and server names in my project and it ran happily (we'll that side of it anyway :sigh:). Basically in the short and long term I would have said SQL2005 is a better bet, much better environment than the one I came across with MSDE (even I could set up the database and permissions etc and I hate and have done very very little "large" database development).

            That isn't really an error, although for some reason it seems as though the message table (which contains the format strings for event log entries) wasn't registered properly. Anyway, it's actually an Information class event, and the log message simply means that the SQL Server service is started and is listening for connections using the Shared Memory scheme. You should be able to connect to it on the local machine. To connect to it over the network, you will need to enable at least one network protocol.
